What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: During the heart cycle, the left ventricle (LV) not only shows a contraction-relaxation pattern, but LV has a rotational mechanics, as well. It is a known fact that certain pathologies may be associated with an absence of LV twist, when LV basal and apical regions rotate in the same clockwise (cw) or counterclockwise (ccw) direction called LV 'rigid body rotation' (LV-RBR), but it can also occur in healthy subjects. The present cohort study aimed to examine LV strains in healthy subjects with LV-RBR versus with normally directed LV rotational mechanics by three-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography (3DSTE). Methods: The study consisted of 181 healthy individuals, from which 171 cases had normally directed LV rotational mechanics (mean age: 32.5±12.3 years, 79 males) and 10 healthy subject showed LV-RBR (mean age: 35.4±11.3 years, 3 males). Complete two-dimensional (2D) Doppler echocardiography and 3DSTE were performed in all healthy individuals. Results: None of routine 2D Doppler echocardiographic parameters showed differences between the groups examined. There were no subjects with ≥ grade 1 regurgitation on any valves or with significant stenosis on any valves. 3DSTE-derived LV volumes, global and mean segmental strains did not differ between the groups examined. Apical anterior and lateral segments showed reduced segmental LV circumferential strain (CS) (-18.9%±8.5% Conclusions: Although global LV deformation is normal in the presence of LV-RBR in healthy adults, reduction of apical anterior and lateral LV-CS (and LV-AS) are present in cases with cwLV-RBR only suggesting segmental deformation abnormalities.
